The experiment seemed to bear fruit, as the level of intensity surpassed that of recent editions.\n\nIn the group stage, Team Stripes initially defeated Stars with a buzzer-beating three-pointer by De\u2019Aaron Fox. However, in the final, the Stars took revenge, led by Edwards, while their rivals showed weariness after playing three consecutive mini-games.\n\nVictor Wembanyama was one of the most outstanding players on Team World, leading his team&#8217;s scoring in two games, although he failed to score in the final. The Frenchman set the competitive tone of the event, as acknowledged by Edwards himself.\n\nScottie Barnes defined the opening game with a three-pointer in overtime, while Kawhi Leonard shone with 31 points in the third game of the preliminary phase. In the final, Tyrese Maxey led the offense of the All-Star Team with nine units.\n\nCommissioner Adam Silver thanked the players for the intensity shown, in an edition that sought to restore the competitive character to the mid-season spectacle.\n\nAmong the prominent attendees was former President Barack Obama, who received an ovation from the audience present.\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>INGLEWOOD, California. \u2014 Team Stars was proclaimed champion of the 2026 All-Star Game after convincingly defeating Team Stripes 47-21 in the final held at the Intuit Dome.
